Spokane is larger than Bremerton and Kent, it’s the one exception in Eastern WA.

It is very much not. There is basically no checkerboarding outside the foothills of the Cascades.

Checkerboarding (land)

>Checkerboarding refers to a situation where land ownership is intermingled between two or more owners, resulting in a checkerboard pattern. Checkerboarding is prevalent in the Western United States and Western Canada because of extensive use in railroad grants for western expansion, although it had its beginnings in the canal land grant era.

Well guys so I ended up doing the drive and right as was passing washougal a truck with a big sign that said sr-14 closed up ahead. I guess some snow fell off a cliff onto the road blocking both lanes like an hour before I got there. Ended up taking 26 up MT Hood and taking i84 the rest of the way. Made it even tho it was very sketchy especially on all seasons in a 2014 Scion TC manual. Thanks for all the responses :)

This feels like the PNW way.

A significant number of people who voted for Obama later voted for Trump.

Lots of Kemp voters also voted against Walker.

And, even if people vote for politicians you disagree with, if you dont' understand their reasoning or their perspective there's no possibility of any policy compromise and the whole thing just becomes a shittier version of team sports.

Yes. Absolutely. I’ve had people who absolutely wouldn’t let me pass. Like a Hyundai Elantra with a middle aged man in it. I’m in a Dodge Ram 3500. I ended up having to just pull off and let him get ahead and then later dip past him when he wasn’t paying attention. Fuckin nuts.

Same. Lived in Philly which has notoriously crazy drivers, Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago. Lived in 9 states total. Drivers in this area are the absolute worst. People are suicide/homicide aggressive. I've never seen so many accidents. I got a dash cam now.

And there are more self centered dipshits around here too. Pulling out in front of traffic. Driving slow unless they can be passed. Left lane camping.

Then the infrastructure is stupid as well. Few turning lanes, even at busy intersections. Lanes that abruptly become forced turns. No ordinances against vegetation/structures blocking line of sight at intersections. Red left arrows. Speed limits are all slower here too.

The weather doesn't even bother me. It's the people that I fucking hate here.

Nah, they got it just go slow. Might be fine.

We call that stretch Mad Max.

Almost makes you wonder why the people crowded around the Sound get to decide on legislation for the entire rest of the state.

YES!!! Parents live in Centralia and I see so much dumbfuckery on the freeway through that stretch that it’s almost funny if it wasn’t dangerous.

That's how I feel in Portland! 5 over and you're speeding. Seattle really is much better about keeping pace

I walk in the parking lot to the grocery store building and cars actually attempt to speed up before I’m 3 feet in front of them to cross, and the stop suddenly as they are about to hit me out of sheer desire to avoid a manslaughter rap.

Regularly through that area and other swaths of interstate that are more sparsely traveled. Plus, I tend to try to time my traveling later in the day to avoid traffic. Hell, I live in LA now and I don't drive that speed, too densely traveled to feel safe going that speed

The problem you're talking about already exists, we live in a tyranny of the minority of Republican states' population. You seem to be oblivious to this.

The safest speed is the speed of traffic. If you’re going significantly slower than everyone else you’re a traffic hazard and an obstacle for everyone else to avoid.
